Easter Brunch in Dallas-Fort Worth

Make Plans for an Eggs-celent Easter Holiday

The Dallas-Fort Worth area is a great place to spend Easter vacation, with plenty of opportunities to see the Easter Bunny or attend an Easter Sunday service, but before you head out for a day of activities, you should start your celebration with a delicious Easter brunch.

Dining out is popular in DFW, and as a result, the city has many great restaurants offering special holiday menus and buffets for Easter brunch each year. Depending on where you go, you can enjoy everything from Texas barbeque and seafood buffets to traditional brunch favorites like chicken and waffles, quiche, and mimosas.

However, as these restaurants are quite popular and many families choose to dine out, even on the holidays, you'll want to book your reservation at least two weeks in advance.
